Luka has been on a roll, he deserves his flowers.
People nowadays can only win MVP twice before losing to someone else based on voter fatigue.
It could be Embiid for back to back to back double MVPs (Giannis, Joker, Embiid) or could be Luka. It’s very early right now but Luka doesn’t really defend and the mavericks have came out and said they’re okay winning games in the 120’s. I personally think Tatum will probably get it based on the Celtics record throughout the year
Hot take! Get it here first at twsn.net
Great stats, better team record.
Honestly what’s even more annoying is Jokic.
Don’t get me wrong he’s great but the way people have been sucking him off for the last few months is annoying. Comparing his last 4 years to MJ and Lebron when Giannis has the same accolades in that span plus some.
luka is a shoe in to win one eventually and if the list of guys who don’t have an MVP on their resume gets shorter and shorter, it’s gonna be easier for him to get one
Team record trumps pure stats this yearly. Also later on.
But as well know the criteria for MVP change every season and throughout the year. All these awards are dumb
Luka always gets hype early in the season because his team has fresher legs and aren’t battling injuries, but just like last year if his team fizzles out record wise he’ll drop out of the discussion very fast
That’s nothing. KOC out Giannis in tier 3 after 1. Jokic, and 2. Luka, Embiid.
He has completely crossed the line over to hot-take pandit / Bucks hater.
